  1. An additional thought - while a Cessna might be able to intercept the slower drones, there's no way it could take down a Flamingo. I'm curious if/when we see video of Russian fighter's attempting to take them down with missiles. That is, if they have the assets to cover that scenario.
  2. The cost of a dude in a Cessna is pretty low. Having spent a fair bit of time flying them, even though I consider myself a pretty good stick (insert FIGJAM jokes here), I would think the intercept rate would be pretty low even if you have good pilots. Consequently, the commensurate cost of burning a partisan asset to attack one is pretty high. Ukraine should keep its eyes on the prize: Keep blowing up strategic assets.
  3. Seems like this flying is done way behind the lines.
  4. I remember being in a doctor's office with my dad when I was a young'un. I was going on and on about how cool motorcycles were and the doc told my Dad, "Get him a motorcycle for his last birthday." Dad had to explain the joke to me on the way home. I was pre-sarcasm. /csb
  5. They tell us we are crazy!! …and they’re right!!!

    I saw La Lom and it was cool. Then again, I was in an instrumental surf rock trio for a while so they’re kind of in my wheelhouse. Except Latin instead of surf. I really dig their band logo. Damn. I thought I got a better shot. Oh well it was fun!
  9. Abbotts been using them for political theater on the southern border for years. So they were on notice.
  10. They're not sending their best...some I assume, are good people.
  11. Did anyone else read this as "Russia can't afford to bribe Kazakh customs agents any longer?"

    I was at that Stones show. I was in Dallas, literally getting in a car to go to the State Fair when a friend in Austin called and said, "You want to go see the Stones tonight?" Why yes, yes I do. So instead of going to the Fair, I was southbound 35 pronto.

    I wrote him off, and then a younger hipper person at work said, "You should really go see him." She was right. Now I'm off to look up his version of "War Pigs"...
  16. What’s the point of throwing an 87 year old out a window?

    Looking at my notes for Sunday: Chuwi - Really fun Puerto Rican band. This was probably my "nice surprise" of the day. The crowd was almost as fun as the band. Rainbow Kitten Surprise - Saw about half this set. Wet Leg - Saw about half of this set. Reminded me of The Breeders, but if they were fit and hung out at the beach. Gigi Perez - Meh. T-Pain - Damn, this man came to put on a show. Non stop fun. MK.Gee - I totally did not get this one. Like, there were times when I was like, "Is there even someone playing? Or is it just that the equipment is left on and making noise?" The Killers - No further discussion needed.
  18. Doesn't this seem like a lot of inside information really quickly? Does that strike anyone else as odd? Why would they want to drag their balls across Russia's face with this, unless all this was compromised already?

    I went home on all those you mentioned. Same same. There was the one year its started raining for Tom Petty and they were delaying starting. So I was like, "Fuck this I'm not standing out here in the rain." Walked all the way back to pick up my ride at the high school across the river - just as they started back up again. But I was too tired to walk back.

    This is completely valid. I just have to take my chances. I recognize at this point that while staying all day is an option, it's just not a fun option any more. It's a sacrifice I'm willing to make. Especially since I go 3 days every year. By the time Sunday comes around, I'm much more sanguine about just sitting in one place and seeing whoever happens to be on the stages on either side of me. It's just how I do it now. That and spending Tuesday coughing up little bits of Zilker as we speak as a happy reminder of good times. Yum!
  21. Seems like this may be an angle given the perp...
